Wimonpak is the perfect host! Whatever I needed, she was willing to provide, including a bike, kettle, steak knife, and ironing of a shirt. The rooms are excellent - well-equipped, clean and modern, with reasonably good security. The area is a little bit boring and dirty, and far from BTS, but then, it's highly authentic and not at all touristy. People in the area are nice and friendly although not much English is spoken (however there is a language school just near the rooms where you can take lessons in Thai). There is a good shopping centre close by (Central Plaza) and some good restaurants. Plenty of street food in the area, and some nice temples.
